Talk Like an Egyptian
Join Mai, Amy and Ella for our fortnightly long-distance catch-ups! Most of our discussions are centred around the perks and downfalls of being both half Egyptian and half British in the various countries we live in. [Jingle credit: Shesh Pesh - JR Tundra from YouTube Free Music Audio Library]
Talk Like an Egyptian
٩. Feminism Part I
•
Season 2
•
Episode 4
What is feminism and what is it to be a feminist? Join us for Part I of a heated discussion on what it's like being three women in the world today. *We would just like to clarify a quick fact that was mentioned in this episode: in the year 2000, Egypt passed a law which finally granted women the right to file for divorce on the basis of “incompatibility”, without providing evidence of harm. This is what No-Fault Divorce is.* For info: the books referenced in this discussion are: If the Oceans Were Ink - Carla Power, Headscarves and Hymens - Mona Eltahawy, The Greater Freedom - Alya Mooro, and Women Don't Owe You Pretty - Florence Given. instagram: @talklikeanegyptian
